this did not solve issue, same problem

Honestly, turning off Windows update is a deal-breaker for me. I could have stayed with Windows 7 and had no issues with WMC, but that seemed like a dead end.

I'm afraid not.

Title pretty much says it all - has anyone ever seen or accomplish custom keyboard shortcuts?

AutoHotHey is a popular utility. You have to do a little reading, but it works well.

Thanks. That seems to be the way to go.

All 4 tuners are checked off for all channels. I thought this could have something to do with tuner priority, but I have played around with that in the past with no luck.

The saga continues.

yep this did the trick a had 12 gb of memory and no i use only 2 gb and it is working again, thanks !

Thinking about this a little more... If it isn't codec related, one difference between WMC and wmp is the now playing viewport, whose existance documented in the WMC sdk. This is the container in WMC that holds the playing video, and it gets manipulated throughout various views in WMC. For instance...

Hi,

I'm running two WMC 8.8.5 installations on W10 64-bit builds 19042.631 & 19042.685 (current 2H20+fixes) on both AMD HD6570 and NVIDIA GT710 video cards using HDMI connections to two AVRs (for video & audio).

If I'm watching WMC TV and turn off my AVR and/or HDTV, I had audio switch back to my...

I've not seen this actual problem myself but a few people have reported it on a fresh installation. Unfortunately, we don't ever seem to hear what the resolution was.

I have a couple of thoughts on the matter.

Firstly, the later versions of Windows 10 seem a lot more memory hungry than previous...

As for my question: why must WMC be run from the \Windows directory? I tried to cut>paste the folder in program files, but it won't run (which isn't unexpected). Since we're working with a patched version of the program on W10, while I hate being an uneducated non-coder, I have to ask why it's...

Thanks

WMC 8.8.5 works well for most people even on Windows 10 20H2 but there are some issues.

It is only available for 64bit versions.

Some people have reported issues with using older tuners.

The feature that downloads metadata for the music library causes WMC to crash and needs to be disabled....

Nobody?
And i thought its was a easy one :D :shock: :lol:

If your cable system is mostly DRM, then it is pointless trying to set up WMC on Win10, as it does not support recording/viewing DRM channels, just like SiliconDust's DVR.
Only WMC on Win7 & Win8 support recording/viewing of DRM channels.

Ya, sadly I tried setting up another Win 7 PC....I give...

My tuner card is a Hauppauge winTv quadHD and my cable service is with Sparklight formerly Newave communication. I can't think of anything else but if you need more info just let me know what you want. Thanks

I have no idea why, but miraculously the problem fixed itself this morning (yes, I've rebooted numerous times since then.)

Last night, I was still getting an error when the recorder attempted to start, but this morning I was stunned to see the red Recording button in the tray. I launched WMC...

Hi Gary - I did install the Ceton drivers after installing WMC 8.8.5, but still no luck.

Thank you very much for your input,,, APPRECIATED....

Be safe Old John

So you can not record a full live event since the end is unknown? Unles your sitting there watching it to click record again?
You mention adding padding to the recording to the recording while it is recording, how do you do that?

I don't have access to WMC at the moment, but if you go to the...
